challenges Cambodia faces is the large amount of plastic waste littering streets and natural areas. To help reduce this growing waste problem, greater environmental awareness among the population is needed. That is why the Chikara youth organize monthly workshops at 40 primary schools.<br>These interactive workshops focus on the importance of a clean environment, plastic recycling, and hygiene. Our self-developed Workshop Guide serves as the foundation for these sessions.    <\/p><p>During the workshops, the young people distribute ecological soaps, which they helped produce themselves. They also encourage students to keep their surroundings clean and to collect and hand in plastic waste. Thanks in part to playful teaching methods &#8211; including puppet shows &#8211; the workshops are very well received.  <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b036f0c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"b036f0c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" id=\"soap\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2f5dfc0 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"2f5dfc0\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-87d902b elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"87d902b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Project 3<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-378cf95 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"378cf95\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Soap in return for plastic waste<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d9a3571 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d9a3571\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>We want the 40 schools to continue being environmentally active after the workshops and will regularly give them soap. This is why we have the \u2018Soap in return for plastic waste\u2019 project. The idea behind it is simple and effective. We arrange with the schools that the children actively collect plastic waste. We collect this waste once a month. In exchange, the school receives balls of soap that we mount on the sinks. We have that plastic recycled and turned into learning materials and other products for the schools. This closes the plastic loop.      <\/p><p><strong>Fruitful partnership<\/strong><br>We work with the Eco-Soap Bank (ESB), a local non-profit organisation, in this project. Together with them, we produce soap for the schools, which often do not have the financial means to pay for it themselves. We also collaborate with Panha Sabay and Gomi Recycle, social enterprises that recycle the collected plastic into (educational) materials for schools. We show the teachers how to use these materials in the \u2018Teach the Teacher\u2019 training.   <\/p><p><strong>Help us increase our impact<\/strong><br>Not only do we reach the primary school children in our workshops and the soap project, we also reach their families and communities. The children tell others about this and set a good example through clearing up rubbish. This means that we have raised awareness among about 40,000 people in Cambodia about the importance of a clean environment. Will you help us reach even more people in Cambodia?   <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e5d8b68 elementor-widget

Through this project we hope to embed environmental education more deeply in primary education in Prasat Bakong. To do this we are using the teaching methods of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.happygreenworld.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Happy Green World (HGW)<\/span><\/a>, a Dutch organisation that works for environmental education all over the world. Our goal is for all the primary schools in Prasat Bakong to work with this methodology.   <\/p><p>To join, the schools sign an agreement with Chikara Cambodia. This commits them to systematically use the methodology. In return, they get lesson books, a manual, environmental games and one year\u2019s worth of \u2018coaching on the job\u2019 by our local project leaders. These project leaders show them how they can use the methodology and share feedback with them and coach them. If this goes well, the school will be awarded a certificate at the end of the year for giving good environmental education.    <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cb00717 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"cb00717\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-80c44c7 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"80c44c7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Donate a lesson package<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9963cbc elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9963cbc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>All the primary schools in the region would like to join this project.
